this thing’s been laying around in my draft folder for the past month or so and i don’t want to throw it out because it might mean something to someone other than myself, that is, as it seems to, in moments and fits and starts….
from august 1st;
a few weeks ago i found myself becoming irked [...]

……and then this showed up today from a girl who used to [...]

there’s loads of pics of the art and performers who played (and many who contributed on both fronts) [...]
